Oh, sure — SanDisk’s 32GB microSDHC card has been “shipping” since late March, but have you actually tried to find one? It’s been a lesson in frustration for many, and while a few e-tailers have shown stock off and on, the card has generally evaded archivists who simply need an insane amount of available storage on their handset. Starting tomorrow, however, that should change. Verizon Wireless — of all companies — has somehow managed to become the “only retailer that offers customers the 32GB SanDisk microSDHC card.” We’re assuming it’s referring to brick and mortar retailers, but at any rate, the gem will be on sale tomorrow at VZW outlets for $149.99, or just $99.99 if you purchase one alongside Motorola’s Droid X. The only trouble with that? You’re stuck figuring out what to do with the 16GB microSDHC card that ships inside of the phone. Thank heavens for the Bay, right?
A 3D digital photo frame may seem a bit excessive for even the most all-compassing technology bandwagon, but the folks from Newsight have managed to put a somewhat unique spin on the idea with this frame recently on display at SID 2010. Like some of the company’s other displays, this 3D LCD is auto-stereoscopic — meaning you don’t need any pesky glasses — but it also takes things one step further by supporting what’s known as “motion parallax,” which effectively means you can “see around” an image. As you might expect, that involves a bit of trickery, but Newsight says its image processing software can take any traditional 3D (or even 2D) image and create five separate images out of it that let you see the same image from different angles. Unfortunately, that image processing must first be done on a PC with the current model, but Newsight promises that the next model will have built-in processing, and it’s already taking about a third version that will let two frames send images to each other.
Talking to people is hard, and talking to strangers? That’s, like, really hard. Nokia has a better way: the Nokia Instant Community. It relies on ad-hoc WiFi connections from (Finnish) smartphones to create dynamic communities into which people can join. Once connected, trendy but introverted festival-goers can chat, exchange photos, and even download each other’s bootlegs of the very show they’re attending! It’s the work of the Nokia Research Center along with Tampere University of Technology, and while it’s just a prototype at this point, you can get the full walkthrough after the break — the full, monotone walkthrough.
We know you’ve got questions, and if you’re brave enough to ask the world for answers, here’s the outlet to do so. This week’s Ask Engadget question is coming to us from James’ best bud, who would love to own an EVO 4G… if not for that 8 megapixel camera that’s strictly against protocol. If you’re looking to send in an inquiry of your own, drop us a line at ask [at] engadget [dawt] com.
“I have a friend who’s taken a job in a security field and the employer doesn’t allow cameras on cellphones. He’s currently happy with an iPhone 3GS and would definitely consider an Android device but is having trouble finding a decent phone with no camera. The only caveat is that for whatever reason he doesn’t want a BlackBerry. Does anyone else make a decent smartphone sans camera? Thanks!”
This is a fairly common question, actually, and despite the fact that few phones are made any more sans a camera, many organizations refuse to allow them. We’d hate for your friend be stuck with a dumbphone, so here’s hoping our readers can drop some knowledge below. Otherwise, we suggest he / she just mail in a two-week notice — Sent from their iPhone, of course.
Since Courier’s now a mystery unearthed — and subsequently sent six feet under — it looks like we need new secret Microsoft projects to pique our curiosity. Enter the ever-connected Mary Jo Foley with some investigative notes into “Menlo,” which seems to be a a future replacement of Windows CE “with Windows NT inside of mobile devices.” The associated graphics platform would be “Experiment 19″ (not quite as interesting a codename, we agree). Presumably heading up Menlo is Galen Hunt, a researcher from the Singular project, joined by other Microsoft brains Ruben Olinsky and (at least at some point) Kerry Hammil. It’s always surprising how much info we can glean from LinkedIn, but we digress: Hunt’s associated profile says Menlo “[combines] OS, UX, and applications research to explore the future of computing when mobiles becomes users primary PCs.” Some bigger picture conjecture seems to center around Menlo having a Silverlight-based UI and boasting improved compatibility between itself and Windows desktop apps. Lots of food for thought, and if you’re interested in what might come out of Redmond many, many years down the line, head on past the read link for all the juicy tech gossip.
If you’re looking for a nettop without all the fussy ability to play high definition content, ASUS’s upcoming EeeBox EB1007 might be your ticket to standard-definition minimalism. According to Netbooked, the vanilla desktop was said at CeBIT to be HD-capable, but what we’re seeing on the company’s site doesn’t appear to be, packing the new Intel Atom D410 processor, 1GB of DDR2 memory, 160GB of storage, three USB 2.0 ports, all topped off with 802.11b/g/n WiFi. No word on when it’ll be available or how much it will cost when it does, but it should certainly slot in under the $387 EB1012.
